From the wiki
“Intentional homicide may or may not include infanticide, assisted suicide or euthanasia. Intentional homicide demographics are affected by changes in trauma care, leading to changed lethality of violent assaults, so the intentional homicide rate may not necessarily indicate the overall level of societal violence”

It doesn’t appear count genocide by musloids – such as the 1 million per year in the Congo.

I own a Frozen Turkey leg in .220 Swift.

Savages? NO WAY!
“Chihuahua has one of the worst homicide rates in the Western Hemisphere, standing at 134 per 100,000 people.”

“on any given day nearly 700 children are harmed due to accidents on our roadways. Of the 250,000 kids injured each year, approximately 2,000 die from their injuries. Children make up about 5% of total fatalities due to car accidents. In fact, for children between the ages of 2 and 14, motor vehicle accidents are the leading cause of death.”

Using liberal logic, Obama is responsible for killing children since he insisted on bailing out GM (unions). I guess we need to ban cars that carry more than one passenger.

This site has a chart with cause of death by age. It may surprise you.

They also have something else- a
country with no savages.

And little freedom.

Still waiting for fleabag to tweet which of those countries above have unarmed police forces.

BTW, I poste this comment at the raging lefty website Mediaite:

Menderman•a day ago −

No where in the 2nd Amendment is the topic of hunting mentioned. The 2nd Amendment was to ensure the populace be armed to protect them from an oppressive government.

Even over there they get it. Next, a survey popped up about the US military spending. Only 47% said the US spends too much on the military and the sample was only 21% republican! (if you grab those screen shots, BFH, it would be IMHO a GREAT post) Don’t let the progs hi-jack the 2nd Amendent!!!

here is the link if you are interested.

While looking at this list something just dawned While reading that list something dawned on me – We continue to let millions of people immigrate to this country from these shitholes with essentially NO way to screen if they give a damn about our laws other than to make them take some watered down class on citizenship and sign some piece of paper that they probably took no time to read. And that is the group of people that actually try to enter here legally. There are millions of others who sneak in illegally or are given visas with essentially no concern about their desire to adhere to our laws.

That was me.

I hate that this text window is so small. I have a really hard time editing what I write and making sure I don’t make stupid mistakes like I just did above.

Japan is a GREAT example! Centuries of war and blood-letting against nearly every other country on the Pacific rim until the US finally had to hand them their asses in the most spectacular fashion in recorded history less than 3/4 of a century ago.

Of course, WE are the bad guys for that.

Instead of destroying themselves through violence, the Japanese are committing slow demographic and cultural suicide, much like similarly enlightened countries in Western Europe. While there’s much to admire about Japan’s massive cultural shift in the post WW2 era, a brief period of relative non-violence in their long history fails to impress me.

And like Fur mentioned above, Japanese society is a far different thing than the US. For one, you have 160 million-some odd people crammed into a very tight space. They are nearly all of the same race, culture and language. There’s not a lot of “us against them” within the society and they are almost mind-numbingly conformist.

4.2, like the real unemployment rate under Bush.

Why is there a red X where my face should be???

The population of Japan is also 98.5% ethnic Japanese. If you extrapolate that to this country and say the U.S. was 98.5% white, the murder rate would be next to nothing as well. That is not racist because most murders are committed by blacks against blacks. It’s a fact.

On the Wiki page there is a table listing murder rates by region and by subregion. By region, “The Americas” is 2nd out of 5 with 15.4%. So it LOOKS like “America” (read: the United States) is really bad but we’re not.

By subregion, North America is 13th out of 22 with 3.9% while South America is 5th out of 22 with 20%, while Central America is 2nd out of 22 with 28.5%! We are relatively harmless compared to the rest of our hemisphere.

If some libtard gives me the gun violence BS again, I’m pointing him to this wiki page.

So, what you are saying Stranded, is the the homicide rate amongst the well armed white Americans is about the same as the unarmed Japanese?

Well, seems to me that it has absolutley nothing to with guns….right?

@FreeMan — My avatar is screwed up too. I went to Gravatar and they seem to be having problems. I can’t change my avatar or anything about my profile.

I’m starting a rumor that Gravatar is being hacked by the Democrat National Committee because commenters at IOTW use Gravatar.

I see lots of red x’s…even for me.

On my iPad, Menderman is the only one who has his avatar showing up on this comment thread. Why is that?

@Jethro

Um, do you know about the dots in the lower right corner of the comment box that can resize your window?

@Menderman — Possibly. We could do more research and still not find out why. As @Commissar M said:

…you have 160 million-some odd people crammed into a very tight space. They are nearly all of the same race, culture and language. There’s not a lot of “us against them” within the society and they are almost mind-numbingly conformist.

That’s a very close assessment of Japan. For a long time, a Japanese believed that if he died before age 45, he hadn’t given enough to the community and was a debtor to society. After that age, he had fulfilled his societal contract. That type of peer pressure is immense and the need to conform is great. Many Japanese still believe that way.

On the other hand, the culture in this country tends to be rather individualistic, despite what the libtards want and do. With that type of mindset you can have personal conflict on almost every level of society. So in our case, we’re good people, just as nice as anyone else in the world, but there seems to be a greater instance of conflict. In this country, if your boss dresses you down in front of the other employees, many people would just flip him the bird and walk. Or get a lawyer. In Japan, the employee would be embarrassed beyond belief and even his family would feel shame.

With our type of individualism there is a need for something, as the libtards love to say, to level the playing field. Your boss is likely to be more understanding of how to be a good manager if he thinks you will go home and get your gun. You’re likely to not go postal if you think he has one.

@Kairn…because you love me!

According to some sources I have reviewed, as well as reports from people who have spent time over there, Japanese people don’t particularly cotton to outsiders. There are people who have lived in Japan for years, speak the language fluently, abide by the local customs, but are still considered outsiders. And this percentage is very small – most of Japan is populated by people of Japanese heritage.

Not that I care – I don’t – but comparing Japan to the United States in terms of population makeup is probably not valid. We have sizable numbers of various rational, ethnic and national groups, many with their own customs and habits; basically, we don’t have a homogeneous society while Japan largely does.

An interesting experiment (if I controlled the world) may be to introduce large numbers of non-Japanese people into Japan and see what would happen. Furthermore, and for added levity, let’s grant these “outsiders” the right, as well as encourage them to claim that they don’t have to abide by their host country rules and traditions because this would be racist – for example, Koreans can tie up traffic in Tokyo while waving Korean flags and demanding official recognition of Korean culture and tradition.

My guess is that the rate of homicide would rise significantly.

Suicide is off the charts and culturally acceptable in Japan. If you counted self-murder in those statistics, where would they be?

“@Kairn…because you love me!”

I only have avatar eyes for you, my wuv.
All other avatars pale in comparison.

Sorry guys. It’s Menderman first for me! The rest of ya’ll gotta fall in line behind him.

Mendermans mine, back off Kairn. LOL.

Menderman, why you two timing sumofagun!!!! You never told me about you and Bad Brad!!!!!

Kairn, that sluts got something going on with Moe Tom too. I know, hurt my feelings too.

Seriously Brad! I thought we were gonna go out drinkin’, I mean fishing!

Hmmmm….y’all look exactly alike….OK…I love all you blue heads!

Rock n roll boys! I gotcha back!

Moe Tom fixes a powerful drink!

old_oaks, same thing. That two timing Mendermans not invited. Maybe will bring Kairn. But then again, she would probably out fish us and we would need to drink more. Who’s driving?

I don’t drink, but I do have a way with the fishies. I hate that throw ‘em back business so popular these days. I catches ‘em I want to eat them, dang it. Why else fish?

Wyatt,

Japanese make the KKK look like reasonable folk. They detest and shun any from their race that interbreed…even (or especially) those that do so with other Asians. And it is not limited to the Japanese…From what I am told from a very close in-law family of cross bread asians, it is brutal to be “impure” amongst them.

I fish…that is why I live.

The proper way to prepare fresh fish is to marinate it in 475° grease for 6 minutes.

Menderman, you weren’t invited, 3 timer. LOL. Who else?

Afraid I’ll out fish you or out drink you?

Menderman, Even though you have played with all of our affections, it is now on like donkey Kong.

I can’t help but notice that Switzerland has an exceptionally low murder rate, yet has a very high rate of gun ownership.
At least half of Swiss homes have at least one privately owned automatic weapon.

The difference?
Relative cultural unity that doesn’t spawn savages.
They have been importing mooslim savages though, so have seen big increases in violent crimes, especially rape.

Considering that we have 312,000,000 people and millions of legally owned guns , I would say we are pretty well behaved

When DNA tests were done on Koreans and Japanese, it was discovered that they share DNA. That is, the Japanese are an offshoot of the Koreans. The howling from the Japanese media and intellectuals could have been heard on the moon.

The reason the left loves to point to Japan as the perfect country with gun control and a low murder rate? They’re racist to the point of xenophobia, just like the liberals in this country.
